FAQs

What is HELLY TECH PROTECTION?

HELLY TECH PROTECTION is a durable and waterproof yet breathable outer layer that keeps you dry and comfortable. It's designed for a wide range of outdoor activities in varied conditions.

Is the insulation warm enough for freezing temperatures?

The PrimaLoft BLACK Eco insulation provides significant warmth. For extremely cold conditions, layering with additional base and mid-layers is recommended.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the Helly Hansen sizing chart available on their official website. Measure your chest, waist, and hips accurately and compare with the provided measurements.

Can this jacket be worn in mild weather?

While it offers breathability, it is primarily designed for cooler, wet, and windy conditions. In mild weather, it might be too warm unless worn with very minimal layers underneath.

What does 'Fully Seam Sealed' mean?

It means that every stitch on the jacket that penetrates the waterproof fabric has a special tape applied to the inside to prevent water from leaking through.

How do I maintain the jacket's waterproofing?

Regularly clean the jacket following the care instructions. Periodically use a wash-in waterproofing treatment designed for technical outerwear to restore the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.

Is the jacket suitable for high-intensity activities?

Yes, the breathable nature of the HELLY TECH PROTECTION fabric makes it suitable for activities with moderate to high exertion, helping to manage moisture and prevent overheating.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof

Ensure the jacket has been washed correctly according to care instructions. Consider using a wash-in re-proofer to restore its water-repellent finish.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush and mild soap. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper track.

Reduced insulation effectiveness

Check for any damage to the insulation. Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can affect thermal properties. Follow washing instructions carefully.

Jacket feels clammy inside

This could indicate reduced breathability. Ensure all care labels are followed, especially regarding detergents and fabric softeners which can clog membranes. Ensure the jacket is not too tightly layered underneath.
